"What's this? How are you still alive?"
The Nine-tailed fox widened their eyes, perceiving the image of a hero underneath their foot.
It was crystal clear who this person was.
"Yo, Kuma, so that's your name, huh? Minegishi Hibiki." Crimson snickered, "You're not even Japanese and you chose the most weeb-ish name. But that's just like you, so I can't complain," Crimson halted the primordial's attack with his shield, all while carrying Minegishi inside his arm, "Did you really think I was gonna just give up my life without some backup plan?" Crimson bashed the fox's paw away, knocking it off balance.
"But how?! How could you survive? I destroyed you with the death status effect... you should permanently be dead! With my power as a Primordial, even resurrection items are negated entirely."
"Huh, really?" Crimson scratched the back of his head, "I guess I should thank Angelica for that item then."
"Angelica? One of the Four Great Kings?"
